A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat? Chapter 50: The empires strength

[T/N: thinking about doing sothing with Ko-fi but idk what yet. patreon

With the appearance of the S rank cyclops an ergency evacuation warning was issued throughout the capital. The battle against high ranking monsters didnt have an end in sight and the struggle continued.

Cat Rage!

Nem hit a wyvern in the face, although it may have surprised the monster it wasnt enough to deal damage to it. With most of the remaining adventurers struggling with the wyvern, Nem who was only level 10 didnt have much of a chance.

Nem fall back!

Toa called out worried.

No! Nem will be useful!

Nem!

A cockatrice flew directly at Nem.

Dodge it!

The cockatrices wings kicked up a large dust cloud hiding Nem from view. Desperate Toa stared into the cloud trying to spot Nem.

Nem!

Toa shouted at a shadow she saw in the dust cloud but it wasnt Nem.

Huh? Sierra?.Sierra!

It wasnt Nem in the cockatrices grasp but Sierra, her right shoulder caught in its beak, petrified. But Sierra gave as good as she got, a rapier made if ice was stuck deep into the cockatrices neck.

Sierra?

Seeing how Sierra had shielded her Nem was at a loss for words as tears ran down her face.

Nem, dont worry, I might not be able to move my right arm very well but I still have my left.

Im sorry!

Toa decapitated the cockatrice and pulled it off of Sierra.

Sierra, drink this!

Toa handed her a healing potion.

Thank you.

But it wasnt enough to completely heal her arm.

Theres no need to rush, Nem just do things that youre capable of. I say that but I dont have any strength either, even though Im. White knight Im still holding everyone back, its pathetic. But if you rush in youll only be wasting your life.

Sierra stood up slowly.

Nem youre going to get stronger, youll travel the world with Toa and Masamune getting stronger and stronger. So dont throw your life away here.

I understand..Im sorry.

Nem wiped her tears.

Im sorry for saying that, but Nem I have a request.

Sierra looked at Toa, a mysterious expression on her face.

Toa, have you noticed how the monsters look?

How they look?

The nootkerane from before, it was empty, it didnt have any insides. Which ans, it was already dead.

Thats

In other words theyre already corpses which ans were most likely dealing with Necromancy. Its a rare kind of magic, Reinhardt should have noticed it as well.

So, what about it?

Nem theres sothing I want you to do for .

Nem?

Yes, there is so sort of magic keeping us from finding out where the enemy is. Ive used detection magic but it seems like even if we find it theres sothing keeping us from being aware of the source. So I need Nem to find it.

Co to think of it, Nems sense of sll is really sharp isnt it?

I dont know? Although there has been sothing really stinky the whole ti weve been here.

Its probably the sll of monsters?

No i dont think its the monsters, it slls like old lady.

Like old lady? What does that an?

It slls kind if like Sharon, but its not Sharon.

Do toy an perfu? Nem, wheres it coming from?

Nems nose twitch as she sniffed the air.

If you can just give a direction thats good enough.

Over there.

Nem pointed in the direction of a small hill.

*

It should be around there but, I cant sense anything. Can you?

I cant sense anything either.

Per Reinhardts orders Hilda and Edward arrived at the small hill. It had an easy view of the battlefield but wasnt high enough that you could see the town.

It seems like this wasnt the right place.

Lets head back, the cyclops is quite strong.

The two of them could see the other white knights struggling.

Although this does seem like it would be a very strategic position.

I know right.

The two of them prepared to leave.

Malicious Penetration!

The two knights looked back at the sa ti sensing the magic power.

Gaha!

But they noticed too late.

Edward!

Hilda shouted, but it appeared as if a hole had been blasted through Edwards body, pulverizing his heart and lungs.

Goho! Its ok.this is..Gaha!

Edward threw up blood then fell forward into it.

Edward!

Hilda rushed over and began applying healing magic.

Im s-orryiwas too.slow.

Dont talk!.Edward?!

Edwards breathing had already stopped.

Wow, magic is truly wonderful, its so easy to tear apart human flesh. Dont you think so Madam Fran?

Yes, Gido.

Two people appeared in front of Hilda.

I didnt think it would be this easy.

Gido, I didnt feel any resistance.

I did either. Although S rank would pose a challenge for . Nihhihihihi.

Youre right. Hohohohohoho.

Gido and Fran laughed while Yun stood next to them appearing disgusted.

Binding Thunder

Hilda shot out two whip like lightning bolts.

Oops! I dodged it~!

But Gido playfully jumped out of the way while Fran used a folding fan to deflect it.

After we kill this woman there are only 5 left. This is childs play.

No no Gido, its much to easy for a child.

Hahaha, you there let as you a question.

Gido smiled fearlessly as Hilda.

That man, hes dead right?

Holy Resonance

Hildas eyes showed no fear as she fired off another attack. The attack gouged out the ground as it flew towards Gido. However he just smiled and slowly stretched out his hand.

Fire shield

A shield of fla appeared completely blocking the attack. The sphere of light seed to stick to the shield as it tried to push through.

Here, have it back.

The sphere of light was sent back at Hilda gouging out the hillside and damaging Edwards body further.

Oh, my aim was off.

Are you holding back? Hilda glared.

Hm? No, I just missed. But more importantly, Im bored. Fran, lets kill this woman.

Gido disappeared.

Guha!

In the next mont Gido sent Hilda flying.

Fran, can you use that mans corpse?

That would be difficult, it would take so ti to repair it.

How unfortunate, I was envisioning a scene where the knights were forced to fight their friends.

Gido kicked Hilda in the ribs as she tried to stand up. The impact caused Hilda to roll down the hill.

Oh no~ shes running away.

Youre just toying with her.

Yun seed frustrated.

Shut up, make no mistake I intend to kill them. Fran lets use the rest of the monsters and head to the battlefield ourselves.

Understood, I shall be a dignified flower on the battlefield.

Dignified?

Yun, you should just wait here. Even if you co youll just get in the way.

Gido glared at Yun as he said this and left.
